is this a story of Zen?

the story was never told as a "Joke" in China. Its an old story, has passed down through generations. "One monk will shoulder two buckets of water, two monks will share the load, but add a third and no one will want to fetch water". The story reflects the selfish nature of human beings and teaches work ethic. its not a joke but a great lesson to learn.

My grandfather used to record and send VHS tape to me with cartoons made in the mainland amongs them (and some puppetry animation).

The word "joke" has two meanings. (at least in my country) The one is prank.The other is a funny story but with a deeper hidden moral lesson.

Beautifully done. I would love to see more quality animation works like this.
Please remove the word "joke" from the title. This nicely animated film tells a great story and a moral for all to learn.
